Ipswitch WhatsUp Gold User Guide
Opening the Dashboard Screen Manager
After successfully installing the Dashboard, you can access the application from your
Windows Start Menu by selecting Ipswitch Dashboard > Dashboard.
Note: This changes if after the initial setup of the Dashboard, you choose to run the
Dashboard at Startup (on the Dashboard Settings dialog). If you choose to do so, the
Dashboard Screen Manager will automatically take you to the blank screen discussed below.
When the dashboard first opens, a blank screen is displayed. The blank page's title bar reads,
"Ipswitch Dashboard [Configure the 'Playlist' for the Dashboard by clicking a mouse button] -
aboutblank."
If you have multiple displays, you will see a Dashboard application instance for each display
in the taskbar. For example, if you have three display devices, DISPLAY1, DISPLAY2, or
DISPLAY3 shows in the taskbar. Select the display you want to configure first, then click a
button on your mouse to open the Dashboard Operations dialog. From here, you can
configure Dashboard playlists (on page 1176).
Configuring a Dashboard Screen Manager playlist
Keep in mind that you need to set up a playlist for each physical monitor on which you want
to display Web pages through the Dashboard Screen Manager.
